Ebb.

The tide Is out and on the bar. The short waves beat a harsh tattoo, While, etched upon the further blue, A patch of foam lies' like a star. Upon the mud before my feet The surf has carved fantastic forms; The wreckage of a hundred storms Is bedded where the currents meet. And here a flashing flock of gulls, A dervish crew, swings to and fro. Or swoops to pluck its prey and go Pirating through the sunken hulls. —James Owen Tryon.

Ups and Downs on the Road.

It’s, easy lb drive an automobile When everything goes O. K.: When the wind Is fair and the road Is bare, And the engine Is chugging away. It’s easy to steer the ponderous thing, It’s easy to start and stop; But It’s hard, I say, when she won’t obey. And the engine refuses to flop. It’S easy to drive an automobile When she’s anxious to sail along; When she thrills to feel the life In her keel. And Is chugging her highway . song. It’s easy to fly down the boulevard When there’s nothing your speed to mar, But It’s hard to bowl when a telegraph pole Runs carelessly Into your car. —Joe Cone.

An Organ Grinder.

I looked upon his face the while ho played— The sordid lines were softened, and his eyes Saw not our friendless wails, our alien skies. Our roaring streets where strides the tyrant Trade. Again he roamed beneath the chest, nut shade Again he roamed Where, grim and grand, Campanian mountains rise, Or marked the olives glisten, silvery wise, In the warm light of some SlUcian glade. I Bo may we each weigh sail and voyage far . On immaterial Journeys; ho puts out Throught the rough magic of his organ strain; A finer music guides us to our star; But all have goals beyond the seas of Donbt, Havens of heart we tain would find again. Remember The Republican when In need of Job printing. ,
